Preliminary Information – Full Audit Pending
This buildings features were determined from publicly available data, including MLS listings. While we cross-referenced additional data sources, it still likely contains incomplete or inaccurate information, as it has not yet been personally verified.
Once a building has been fully audited, this page will be replaced with an in-depth analysis featuring verified details and photos of every key feature.
Until then, we provide a data‑driven overview that blends statistical analysis of the checkbox selections agents make in MLS with an AI‑powered read of their public remarks—yielding a clearer picture of the building than raw listings alone.

The MLS floor field reaches 4 with 33 listings, and the county parcel also reports 4 floors. The state registration's 5-floor field is set aside because REB floor fields are unreliable.
The state registration lists 454 units for this one-building registration, matching the county's 454-unit dwell sum. The county reconciled figure of 299 is set aside because it conflicts with the authoritative registration and county dwell count.
Owner occupancy from AOUO registration(s) 442. Refreshed by Real_Estate_Scraper/reb_registry/propagate_owner_occupancy.py, which this lock does not block.
Multiple public remarks directly confirm that Makaha Surfside has five elevators. Other remarks also reference elevator access, new elevators, and proximity to elevators, supporting the stated count.

Common-area expenses are strongly supported by the current MLS data, with OTCOEX appearing in 16 of 20 listings. Several remarks state that fees include common area maintenance and shared building amenities; the evidence is consistent across multiple agents, although common-area electricity is not usually named separately.

Hot water inclusion is not supported across the building: 0 of 20 listings include HOTWAT, while 12 of 20 list WTRHTR. Most remarks mention individual or tankless water heaters, and only one listing claims fees include "hot water," suggesting that statement is likely copied or erroneous.

No analysis available
Sewer inclusion is strongly confirmed across the building, appearing in 19 of 20 current MLS listings. Multiple independent remarks explicitly state that monthly maintenance fees include sewer, making this consistent building-level information rather than an isolated checkbox.
Water inclusion is strongly supported, appearing in 19 of 20 current MLS listings. Multiple remarks from different listings explicitly confirm that water is included in the monthly maintenance fee, so the evidence is broad and consistent.
BBQ facilities are explicitly mentioned throughout the remarks, commonly as "BBQ area," "BBQ pavilion," "barbecue area," or "barbecue grills." With 19 of 20 current MLS records containing the BBQ amenity and numerous independent remark confirmations, the evidence is overwhelmingly strong.
No analysis available
No analysis available
No reviewed listing remarks identify a car wash facility. The single current MLS selection is unsupported by descriptive remarks, so there is insufficient evidence that this is a genuine building amenity.

Exercise facilities are explicitly mentioned in many listings, including references to an "exercise room," "fitness center," "fitness room," and "workout room." The evidence is strong and repeated across multiple agents, confirming this is a building-level amenity rather than an isolated or copied claim.
No analysis available
Eleven of 20 current listings select MEEROO, and remarks directly mention a "meeting room," "community meeting room," "recreation room," and "rec room." Although less frequently listed than fitness or BBQ facilities, the repeated direct references across separate listings validate the amenity.
Numerous listings from multiple agents describe outdoor spaces, including “one of the larger lanais,” “watch the sunset from your lanai,” “ocean and pool view from your balcony,” and a “private balcony.” Other listings repeatedly mention shared BBQ pavilions, poolside BBQ areas, grassy common areas, and outdoor walking paths, confirming the complex offers patio/deck-like amenities despite only 2 of 20 current listings marking PATDEC/COVPAT.
Walking and jogging paths are repeatedly confirmed, including "a paved walking path that winds throughout the property," "relaxing walking paths," and "walking/jogging path." The current checkbox frequency and multiple detailed remarks establish this as a building amenity.

At least five listings directly identify recreation facilities, including a "covered recreation area," "recreation areas," and a "recreation room with workout equipment." Although less frequently selected than fitness or BBQ amenities, the repeated explicit descriptions support inclusion.
A recreation room is explicitly mentioned in several listings, including "the recreation room with workout equipment," "rec room," and "building features ... recreation area." While less frequently checked in MLS than the other amenities, the repeated direct descriptions support including it as a building amenity.

Sauna availability is strongly confirmed across multiple agents and listings, with repeated phrases including "men and women’s sauna," "male/female saunas," "2 saunas," and "sauna room." The current MLS frequency and consistent remarks support this as a shared building feature.
Storage is confirmed by multiple explicit remarks across the listings, including references to a storage unit, storage locker, storage closets, and parking-area storage. Although only 1/20 current MLS records lists storage in amenities and 1/20 in unit features, the repeated detailed descriptions across listings support that storage is an available building or unit-associated feature rather than a checkbox-only artifact.
Surfboard storage is directly identified as a community amenity in multiple listings. The repeated explicit references provide strong confirmation.
No analysis available
Eleven of 20 current MLS listings select TRACHU, but none of the supplied remarks explicitly mentions a "trash chute," "garbage chute," or "refuse chute." This may reflect copied checkbox data rather than independently verified remarks, so the feature is retained based on current MLS data with limited confidence.
No analysis available
No analysis available
No listing explicitly describes a whirlpool, hot tub, jacuzzi, or spa facility. The single current MLS selection is isolated and unsupported by the remarks, while references to "spa-inspired" bathroom finishes describe a unit renovation rather than a shared whirlpool amenity.
Swimming pools are mentioned across numerous listings from multiple agents, commonly as 'two swimming pools,' 'two pools,' or 'multiple pools.' The evidence is exceptionally strong and consistent, indicating a shared building amenity rather than isolated or copied unit-level information.
Three of 20 current listings include the HEAPOO code, which suggests a heated pool, but no public remark explicitly uses the phrases 'heated pool' or 'heated swimming pool.' The feature is therefore retained based on the prior high-confidence determination and amenity coding, with moderate rather than near-certain confidence.
The remarks directly identify the community pools as salt water. This is stated more than once and provides high-confidence confirmation.
No analysis available
Community laundry is overwhelmingly supported across the building: 17/20 current listings include COMLAU, and many remarks from multiple listings explicitly describe "community laundry," "on-site laundry," "2 laundry facilities," or "two community laundry areas." The repeated references across units and buildings, consistent with the prior high-confidence history, establish shared laundry as a building amenity rather than isolated copy-paste.
Laundry availability is repeatedly confirmed, but the listings do not describe any payment requirement. Because no qualifying paid-laundry language was found, this feature is false.
The listings confirm shared laundry facilities, including references to two laundry areas or buildings. No remark says laundry is located on each floor, so the every-floor feature is not supported.
Parking is strongly confirmed across the building and multiple agents, with well over 20 remarks referencing parking facilities or stalls. Descriptions include covered parking, open parking, secured garage parking, guest parking, and parking structures, so this is not dependent solely on copied checkbox data.
Assigned parking is exceptionally well supported across the building, with numerous listings from multiple agents explicitly describing assigned or deeded stalls. The repeated detailed references—including one or two assigned stalls, covered assigned spaces, and designated stall numbers—strongly confirm that the building offers assigned parking.
Covered parking is repeatedly confirmed across the remarks by multiple agents, with explicit phrases including 'covered parking,' 'covered parking stall,' 'deeded covered parking space,' 'parking garage,' and 'assigned covered parking stall.' Combined with 14/20 current MLS listings marking covered-parking features and no credible contradictory evidence, support is very strong.
Multiple listings explicitly identify deeded parking stalls, often covered and sometimes accompanied by storage. Although some units have assigned or open parking, deeded parking is clearly available in the building.
No analysis available
Public remarks provide a monthly rental range of $40 to $60 for an additional parking stall. No single standard fee was stated for all assigned, deeded, or included stalls.
Guest parking is well confirmed: 13/20 current listings include the GUEST feature, and remarks repeatedly state “guest parking,” “guest stalls,” “ample guest parking,” or even “22 guest stalls.” The references occur across multiple distinct listings and support that the complex offers visitor parking.
At least 20 listings reference secured access or parking-related security, including “fully gated community,” “secured entry garage structure,” “secure parking garage,” “secured project with security and keyed entry,” and “parking entry has security guard.” The lower current checkbox count appears to reflect inconsistent MLS coding rather than a change, given the strong historical confidence and repeated remarks.

No analysis available
The remarks mention assigned, covered, deeded, open, guest, and rentable parking, but do not mention a parking waitlist, parking waiting list, or joining a waitlist for parking. Based on the absence of public-remark evidence, no parking waitlist system is confirmed.
No analysis available
The property clearly has physical and gated security measures. However, the specific card or fob access feature is not supported by the remarks.
Security service is overwhelmingly supported across the listing remarks, with well over 18 listings mentioning 24-hour or 24/7 security, security patrol, or security guard service. Multiple agents independently use explicit phrases such as “Security Guard,” “24-hour onsite security,” and “24/7 guard service,” although some wording appears templated or copy-pasted; the consistency and MLS checkbox data strongly confirm the feature.
Active patrol or guard service is repeatedly confirmed in the public remarks. References include 24-hour patrol and security personnel serving the community.

Window air conditioning is strongly supported across the building: 10 of 20 current MLS listings include the ACWIUN inclusion, and numerous remarks explicitly mention window AC units. Examples include "a window A/C unit," "newer window A/C unit," "brand-new window AC," and "newly installed ac window unit," indicating the feature is available in multiple units rather than being a single listing error.
Concrete construction is strongly supported across the listing history, with 19 of 20 listings identifying CONCRE as the construction material. Current remarks include the explicit phrase "Concrete walls in the living spaces" and reference cinder-block walls, providing direct confirmation rather than relying solely on copied MLS checkboxes.
0 listings mention double-wall construction or two walls. DOUWAL appears in only 4 of 20 current listings, but no remarks independently confirm it, suggesting the checkbox data may be unverified or copied rather than a reliable building feature.
0 listings mention hollow tile or hollow tile construction. HOLTIL appears in only 4 of 20 current listings, with no supporting remarks from multiple agents, so the checkbox evidence appears weak and possibly copy-pasted.
Two of 20 current listings report MASSTU in the construction materials. The supplied remarks do not clearly state "masonry and stucco," so evidence is limited and may reflect MLS checkbox reuse; however, the current records provide moderate support.
No analysis available
Six of 20 current MLS listings report SLAB, but the extensive public remarks contain no references to a concrete slab foundation or solid concrete foundation. Because the evidence is limited to inconsistent MLS checkbox data, this feature is not supported.

Eight of 20 MLS records identify ABOGRO. Multiple independent remarks describe units on the first through fourth floors, including phrases such as "4th floor unit," "top floor," and "multi-story" building features, providing strong confirmation of above-ground construction.
Weak evidence: only 2 of 20 MLS construction_materials include BRICK and no public remarks reference brick or brick-and-mortar construction. Given the lack of corroborating remarks, it's unlikely the building is primarily brick construction.
No analysis available
The listings support long-term or extended rental use but do not support short-term rental eligibility. The explicit 90-day minimum rental requirement is evidence against typical STR use.
Because the remarks do not support short-term rental eligibility, participation in a hotel rental pool must be false. Searches for hotel pool, rental program, Hilton, Trump, Ritz, or hotel operations found no evidence.
There is no evidence of a mandatory hotel rental program. The prerequisite is also not met because the remarks indicate a 90-day minimum rental policy rather than short-term rental eligibility.

The building is consistently identified as fee simple rather than leasehold. Searches for lease expiration, land lease, ground lease, renewal, and leasehold end dates found no applicable year.
The remarks repeatedly confirm that VA financing is available for units in the building. One listing specifically states that the property is VA approved, providing very strong evidence.
The remarks were searched for fully insured, full insurance, comprehensive building insurance, fully covered insurance, and walls-in coverage. No qualifying insurance statement was found in the public remarks.
No analysis available
The remarks were searched for fire/life safety evaluation, FLSE passed, fire safety certification, life safety compliance, and passed fire inspection. None of these terms or equivalent statements were found, so there is no public-remarks evidence that the building passed.
Flood zone determined from official FEMA Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (DFIRM) data using building coordinates, not from agent-reported listing data.
No analysis available
Ocean views are strongly supported across the building: 16 of 20 current listings mention OCEAN in their view descriptions, and many detailed remarks independently describe unobstructed, panoramic, direct, or Pacific Ocean views. The repeated references across multiple buildings and units indicate a legitimate building-level offering rather than a single copied claim.
Mountain views are supported by 8 of 20 current listings, including explicit descriptions of “stunning views of both the Waianae mountain range and the sparkling ocean,” “peek-a-boo mountain views,” and “the majestic ocean and mountains beyond.” The feature appears in multiple distinct remarks rather than relying only on generic building descriptions.
No analysis available
No analysis available
Coastline views are supported by 6 of 20 current listings, including explicit wording such as “this West Coastline,” “ocean and coastal views,” and “captivating ocean and coastal views.” Although less frequently mentioned than ocean or sunset views, the repeated explicit references establish that the building offers coastline-view units.
Garden or landscaped views appear in 7 of 20 listings and are supported by multiple remarks, including 'expansive green lawn,' 'grassy back yard,' 'lush green manicured grounds,' and 'meticulous landscaping.' The feature is not universal to every unit, but multiple listings indicate that buyers can find garden, lawn, or landscaped views within the building.

No analysis available
Sunrise views are less frequently advertised, appearing in 3 of 20 current listings, but the evidence is explicit rather than inferred. One listing states, 'Wake up each morning to stunning sunrise views over the Pacific,' confirming that sunrise exposure is available in at least some units.
Sunset views are strongly supported across the building: 9 of 20 current listings include SUNSET in the view descriptions, while multiple remarks explicitly mention “sunset views,” “breathtaking sunsets,” and “front-row sunsets.” Although 3 listings report NONE, the repeated detailed mentions across many units and agents confirm that sunset-view units are available.
No analysis available
The search found many references to views from units, lanais, and living rooms, especially ocean and sunset views. No remarks mention fireworks or watching fireworks from the building.

No analysis available
At least 3 listings explicitly mention the feature, including “resident manager's office on site,” “on site management,” and “onsite manager.” The evidence is consistent across multiple remarks and is supported by the current MLS amenity data, where 7/20 listings include RESMAN; this appears to be a legitimate building-level amenity rather than a single copied remark.
